Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I want to use these materials as well-deserved treats and snacks for my students. Many of my students do not have the means to treat themselves and I would like to be able to spoil them when they have earned it. I can use these items as an incentive for a dessert table or party that was earned because they chose to work and study hard for a tangible goal in mind. Being able to offer an assortment of treats and snacks to make them feel loved and appreciated can motivate anyone.
